Wilson is a big man. There's no way that a bump from Pettersson is gonna make him go down like that. You can see by the angle he takes on the play that he's intentionally looking for contact so that he can dive. And then as soon as he goes down, he blatantly pumps his arms to give his body more momentum for the crash. Clearly trying to both draw a penalty and injure Jarry. Can't believe the Penguins were so nice about things.
The way Wilson was angled, he was hoping there was just a wee little bit of contact from a DMan so he would have a reason to launch himself and could intentionally take out Jarry.
I'd make the case that Wilson charges nets on purpose with the hope that he gets hooked, tripped, pushed, whatever just so he can crash into the goalie. Some people thrive on adrenaline. He is the NHLs version of the XGames, where you hurtle yourself down mountains, through the air, crashing into things. He may not be the architect of the fall, but he created that scenario.
Intentionally falls on his ass and slides right into the tender. Typical Wilson bullshit. Nhl reffing has become almost as embarrassing as Wilson's acting skills. No trip whatsoever. Open your fucking eyes
I wish no injury upon any player. Since wilson is just a goon on skates im hopeful this is a lasting injury. The league would get a lot better with the removal of dirty, unsafe players like him. Unfortunately this is probably very minor and won't miss a game
If Pittsburgh's player hadn't checked Wilson into his own goalie, it probably would have been a goal for Tom Wilson. Still, it might be better to give Wilson that scoring chance than to check him into your own goalie. On the other hand, it knocked Wilson out of the game, so maybe it wasn't so bad after all…
I can't stand Wilson. That said, first watch at live speed I saw he either lost an edge or was tripped…I hate to give him a pass on anything, especially after what he did to Sundqvist, but there's nothing in this.
As a hockey fan, I can't stand Tom Wilson at all, I think there's no place for him in this league, but that was not his fault. Nothing he could have done in that scenario, having his feet swept out from under him.

Hate Tom, but it wasn't his fault this time.
Poor skinner
Clean crash

What a deceiving title

A bunch of little pansy pushers hopping to score a goal. Where are the Bobby Clarks of the world?
I dont think he intentionally crashed Jarry but he intentionally fell for a better angle on the puck. In other words he dove.
Another blatant penalty by Wilson, suspend Marchand !
More like, Tom Wilson was knocked over by a Penguin's player, who apparently doesn't care about his own goalie, while crashing the net.
Incoming DoPS fine for getting body checked.
Oh my. I hope Willy is ok. That looked pretty bad.
Tripping?? WTF? I'll give you interference, but tripping requires you to you know…trip somebody. Pettersson came nowhere near Wilson's lower body.
what a goof ball

As much as I do not like the toolbox that is Tom Wilson, this was not his fault.
Oh no! Anyways

I feel like a goalie is getting hit ever game this season
They only called it to give the caps a chance. Fuckin biased call if you ask me.
Clean hit 🙂
Really Tom?!!!! The hell is wrong with you!!!! 🤬
Come on NHL how much longer are you guys gonna let this goon continue to do brutal illegal hits and head hits?!!! 🤬
$1 fine
I can't tell how many times thay I have been taken out as a tender. In the almost 50 years I have lost count. LMAO
Love it!!! Wilson is the biggest pos in the league!! Couldn't happen to a better guy. And he can come see me personally if he doesn't like my comment.
Suspend wilson
How dare him crash into the goalie after clearly being tripped
Lol
Wilson should be banned for life, dirty bastard.
The people defending this (and I will say it's not Wilson's fault) are the same ones who somehow missed the trip when Kreider did this to Price
Another Wilson asshole moment. Guy is such a tool
I can't stand Wilson. That said, first watch at live speed I saw he either lost an edge or was tripped…I hate to give him a pass on anything, especially after what he did to Sundqvist, but there's nothing in this.
wilson deserves lesson from reaves
Nothing penalty worth here. I just hope both Jarry and the goal are okay
lol big strong guy like him falls that easy when pumped….. just like krieder lol dirtiest play you can do to a goalie.
……….tripping?
I like wilson and his ability to terrify a league that is going soft and yeah hes taken it to far but thats sports for ya
One day we're going to see Tom Wilson in a Boxing match against Vontez Burfict on the undercard of a Jake Paul card.
In this time Wilson not guilty. 🙂 and I not able to write bad word about him.
Every team needs one of Tom Wilson very physical
Hope he can play tomorrow

Marino checking if Wilson is alright is kinda cool
